A heartfelt message for CountOfTheFog ❤️
@CountOfTheFog Our dear Count, friend and community chief for all things updates, was recently in a serious accident. When I was able to briefly speak with him, he was in a lot of pain and facing surgery. He was also really upset about not being able to attend the event in Canada today. He was so eager and excited to meet…

Pyramid Head is the worst killer I’ve ever seen in 2v8
why even add him when he doesn’t feel any smoother from 1v4 he literally feels like default Pyramid Head I will never play him again in 2v8 when I can play Oni and get 50x the value easier.

Why do we even have map offerings anymore?
Stop polluting our blood webs with ######### that barely even works in the first place. Just remove them at this point

Slugging interrupts the entire flow of the grind session.
I don't even care about tunneling or facecamping anymore, I just need to get into the next match but when killers slug, it interrupts the entire playsession and holds the gameflow hostage while I'm just supposed to wait to bleed out. No, I'm not going to waste a perk slot on an anti-slug perk because as a solo-queue…

Crutch
It's funny how they're nerfing sprint burst when it's one of the worst perk in the game and the REAL annoying perk I constantly see in every killer match is "windows of opportunity + lithe" . If they really cared about quality of life for killers they'd nerf those. But ig people just can't play without them.

Incoming Chat Wheel
Devs did a AMA on reddit and confirmed that a Chat Wheel is coming which I think is a great help for Solo Q. I can't wait till I'm in chase and see my teammates doing nothing so I can spam them 60 times in a minute to do a gen just fyi Devs if you haven't added a cooldown to prevent chat wheel spam you absolutely should…

What is causing the crazy long killer queue times?
Killer queues times are higher than I can ever remember in the years I’ve been playing this game. 2v8 queue times have always been long for killers, but in this most recent version I’ve been consistently seeing times between 30-40 minutes, way higher than ever before. 1v4 mode killer queue times are also much longer than…

So, remember dislikes are a good way to get the less vocals opinions?
Theres a lot of vocal context that can be obtained from this too though. Each character you add adds another 3 to 6 prestiges (if 1 killer and one survivor) to 9 if its a special one of like 2-1. And we supposed to assume stuff like the shrine bp being lowered, amount for dailys, cakes during the anniversary having to be…

Should they consider removing Oni from 2v8?
I don't really like 2v8, but I played a couple games because my duo thinks it's fun (plus higher bloodpoint bonus). But every game was Oni. I'm not even exaggerating. You play 2v8 there's a really good chance you're gonna face Oni. He is just so good in 2v8 that players refuse to try someone else. This really contributes…

Question hillbilly chainsaw curving
Today i decided to start playing some billy and practicing which has been great fun today but ive been handicapping myself to no m1 and only m2 and not really trying to hook people so i need to win some games to get with some survivors who have perks unlocked lol. I have been really struggling with the initial chainsaw…

Is it me or is 2v8 on both sides seem a bit stale?
Last year's 2v8 was fun and chaotic but this year it feels stale. Not sure if its just me hence why I'm bringing this up.

Linking issue
I submitted a ticket on July 21 to resolve a linking issue between PlayStation and my steam account for dead by daylight to replace it with my PC and dead by daylight and there’s a linking issue. It says I removed the link but when I try to sign it says the link is still there. And it’s not allowing me to switch my profile…

Please Please Please give us an option to choose normal huntress audio when facing facemelter eddie
I cant track where he is coming from I don't know when he is raising a hatcher I get no meaningful audio queues from this guy at all and the worst of all is it gives me a straight up headache having to listen to that audio all game. its super annoying. This skin was done very poorly please let us face it with normal…

Been thinking about getting her skin, but I'm still unsure. What's your experience been like playing her? Do you feel like the skin is worth the price?

DBD x Gamescon (2026)
Hey everyone, Does anyone have info about DBD's presence at Gamescom this year? I haven't seen much about it on social media, and I'd love to know more — dates, booth/presence hours, which devs or staff will be there, etc. If anyone's seen an official announcement or has details, feel free to drop them here! And if anyone…

Stop hard tunneling.
No I'm not complaining about tunneling in general, i tend to be understanding of the concept. The thing I have an issue with is the worst kind of tunneling. Standard tunneling is whatever, if you find a double hooked surv and a no hook surv on a gen, you have a choice and the double hooked surv is the tactical choice every…

Am I the only one frequently vs-ng killers in 2v8 with 100ms+ on frank-t servers?
It’s incredibly frustrating to get hit when there’s clearly still distance to the pallet, it renders survivor resources useless. Abandon should be available if the killer’s ping stays that high for more than 2-3 minutes, or if they’re artificially inflating it, judging by the range at which they’re hitting survivors…

Please inform me on the possibility of a Twitch shirt/cosmetic
I am a Twitch Affiliate and stream DBD, but I have been curious about how to obtain the Twitch shirts for a while now as they have been a goal of mine. I've heard many different things on this topic. I'm sure they're a guarantee if you're in the creator program, but many of us are small streamers, and some players who…

DBD stats tracker still isn't right.
Has anyone else noticed that the stats tracker still doesn't display correct information? My longest chase is supposedly 2 mins 2 seconds but I know for a fact that it's longer than that as I have a clip of recent gameplay of me, playing survivor, being chased by a not-so-great Legion for closer to 3 minutes without the…

Why do I still have to funnel blood points into new DLC characters I paid for?
I've always had this question in my mind every time I bought a new DLC but never dared to ask it out loud. But with the recent discussion about the nerf of blood point gain I feel why not give it a shot. First of all to clarify, I am a very infrequent player. Maybe I play this game like 3-4 times each quartal of the year.…

Anyone else sick of Nemesis zombies?
They're plenty of annoying in normal DBD but in 2v8 they're ######### everywhere. These things need to have a finite amount of spawns before they stop appearing

Post your builds!
The purpose of this forum is to either post your favorite builds, the ones that get you the highest escape/kill rate, etc. Just have fun! This gives a chance for others to see potentially non-meta builds that work well! (OR just other meta builds lol) NOTE - these escape/kill rates are specific to these builds, not the…

A Fair Compromise Between Players Who Use Anonymous Mode and Those Who Dislike It
There have been many discussions about Anonymous Mode, and I think both sides have understandable reasons for their opinions. Players who use Anonymous Mode often say that it helps protect them from harassment, targeting, or unwanted attention outside of the match. I completely understand that, and I think having an option…

You can still bodyblocking cage in 2v8
This is already the 4th or 5th iteration of the 2v8 mode, and survivors can still body-block the cage rescue. That’s exactly what happened to me yet again — I was stuck in the cage, and a survivor decided to body-block my rescue for the entire game, ruining the match for the other 9 players.The survivors thought I had been…

Nemesis has to many Zombies
I'll say it Nemesis has to many Zombies in 2v8 2 was to little and 4 is to much I think 3 zombies is the sweet spot Update a pretty popular comic artist who made Nerd and Jock comic even thinks there's to many Zombies in 2v8

Kinda funny how Judgement has zero mobility
The killer with 4 legs and wings, is a 4.4 killer. Just noticed it and thought it was funny.

The genius solution to slugging
As many of you feel that nowadays, hooking has become such a punished strategy for killer, some killers have shifted towards slugging instead. This post is about how to solve excessive slugging playstyles, yet keeping slugging as a valid strategy for killer. We have seen many excessive solutions to slugging too, like…

3v12
Not really serious about an upgrade to the chaos. Just talkin' cuz it's frustrating getting down voted for everything and watching very little constructive feedback. 2v8 spikes player counts across the board. Survivors feel like they aren't going to get stomped into the ground every game and Killers have so many targets…

Petition to bring Shanoa and Simon Belmont in as Legendary skins for Trevor
Since the majestic Balrog is active today, I will shoot my shot. I speak on behalf of the entire dbd community when I say "We want Shanoa and Simon Belmont as Legendary skins"🙂 'runs for cover' This is our big chance! Comment or vote up to show your support for the cause! (Even if its just to get me to shutup about Shanoa)…
-
Why can you save everybody?
Idk if this is just me but if a Judgement does well and send multiple survivors to exile like 3 for example why can the last survivor pray and get everybody back at once? That just seems kinda bad like imagine if a Survivor could just unhook everyone at once all that pressure the judgement built up is just gone at least…

What playing regular dbd during 2v8 is like ...
get home and boot up dbd 1v4 -5 minute queue time because 2v8 is in effect -finally find a lobby and i see an epic store player named trollingprophet( known cheater ) dodge lobby and report the person queue again -another 5 minute queue -just turning off the game and playing something worth my time .

DEVS are you actually going to nerf ENDURANCE after an unhook in the live release?
Because if so, that’s just absurd! First off, there are fast killers and strong anti-loop killers for whom the reduced endurance duration after an unhook is actually an advantage! Killers have perks to counter altruism—like STBFL (which is getting buffed in the next patch), Forced Penance, and Coup de Grace for, Enduring…

Why are we not able to have multiple queues / gamemodes at once?
I was going to just reply to this Dev reply in another thread, but decided to make a post of my own to make it more focused on this topic / easier to see. Can I ask, is DBD's playerbase so limited that queue times would be bad if there are more than 2 gamemodes at any point? DBD is played across consoles, Epic, and Steam,…

HUGE NEWS FOR SOLO QUEUE (PRESET CHAT)
In the latest AMA on reddit, assuming anyone hasn't seen it yet, they've just revealed that we're going to be getting a communications system incoming soon! I can't express how good this is going to be for players who primarily play survivor in solo or duo queues, even being able to communicate something as simple as 'I'm…

Nemesis is problematic on 2v8
i dont even think this is a hot take, nemesis having 4 zomies makes him the clear winner and its not even close. i understand the logic in doubling his zombies since everything else is doubled but bhvr dont seem you get that his zombies scale more than that. At absolute peak, in 1v4, nemesis will chase 1 player and 2…

How come that people saying killer worst state in ever, yet in matchmaking have to wait long?
Just surprised after returning to play I see lot of complaints how bad killers are how survivor sided the game, yet on eu for most part I have to wait up to 10 minutes to play killer at early hours, afternoon still above 5 minutes, even at evening or night still few minutes. Basically survivor has blood bonus all the time,…

Can 2v8 maps be added to custom game map pool?
title for reference i dont mean the gamemode, i mean the actual supersized version of maps just being selectable in 1v4 customs (alongside the now retired 2nd variation of maps which is still in custom pool) The large map variations would be great for us people who like to 1v1 in customs, it gives us a bigger board to play…

bhvr doesn’t know how to handle perks.
looking at a lot of perks, it’s VERY clear they think the only options for perks are for them to be utterly useless or completely OP. no in between. the only thing that inspired this post was looking at unknowns perks. each failed skill check is 3 tokens. spend the tokens when you damage a gen and block it for 1 second…

What other stun perks could be added?
what other fun stun type perks could theoretically exist? right now we have head on (locker), last stand (window) and pallets obviously already stun. personally i think a balanced landing type stun perk could be interesting where you fall from a height and land on the killer superman style to stun them. what do you guys…

[Event Suggestion] New Secret Passage Solo Escape Gameplay Framework (Balanced & Event-Only)
Dear Behaviour Team and fellow community players, I'm an overseas player who's really into Dead by Daylight. My English isn't perfect, so I used AI to organize the language and logic of my ideas. But the inspiration for this Secret Passage design is all mine, merely drawing some references from asymmetric games like Texas…
